A light, fresh and very drinkable beer with lemongrass. The Funky Falcon thanks its name to the funky hop varieties that are used. When you smell this Pale Ale it feels like falling in love. Everything comes together in these melony, lemony and lemongrass aromas.

330ml bottle. Minimally cloudy, yellow-ish golden colour with huge, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Minimally sugary, floral aroma, slightly citrusy and grassy hoppy overtones, hints of green apple and lemongrass, unripe green fruit in general. Taste is minimally tart, grassy and citrusy bitter hoppy, notes of green apple and corresponding parings, a cautious touch of lime and lemongrass. Not the dirtiest kind of funk here.

A light yellow, a head is big and blond. Aroma is tropical fruity and fresh, grapefruits, mangos, some lychee and hint of spicyness. Taste has grapefruits, sourness of citrusfruits, some bitterness. Quite light bodied, very refreshning. Simple with aromatic grapefruits, good Pale Ale.

33 cl. bottle @ hoem, gift from Hilde. Hazy yellow with a white head. Aroma of citrushops and yeast. Taste is fairly sweet with a bitter base and finish. Not as funky as other saisons but very tasty after a long night’s and day’s work.
